Rodney would not make a good politician. He doesn't tiptoe through the tulips for anything.

Absolutely. It's a huge problem on many levels if a player can scuttle a trade just by saying "I don't wannnnnna!!" I would think the commissioner's office can't let it get to that point.

True but hes not dumb enough to piss off sources and say something moronic like, 'They Hate Their Coach' w/o substance.

Rodney will be a must-watch no question.

I think that is exactly the type of politicians we need... Ones who don't kiss arse to the lobbyists.. but I digress..

IMO getting Seymour does not change that. That organization doesn't have a soul.

After seeing that Seymour is grossing $216,764 per week, I now feel no pity for the guy. That weekly amount would take me about 7 years at my job to make that much money.

Suck it up, play out the year in Oakland and go elsewhere next season...

Which is why the 5 day letter should be sent out now and it should be from the Raiders. 5 days to either show up, in Oakland, or sit out the year.

So Seymour's upset. Who cares? He makes millions, he's gotten paid when he's been injured, he held out when he was unhappy with his contract, he'll be a FA un 6 months unless he chooses to sign an extension with Oakland, and he's upset? Please. He can choose (a) to report and sign a long-term extension for millions more, moving to one of the most desirable areas of the country, (b) to report and suck it up for 5 months, then become a FA and go where he wants and make millions more, or (c) to retire and live on the millions he has already made, if he has been smart enough to save money. Those are his options.

I'm tired of the media and fans sympathizing with spoiled crybaby players like Cutler and Seymour who try to publicly whine and get their way every time something happens that they don't like. They have it better than 99.999% of the population. Maybe they should actually have to work for a living to put things in perspective.
